The ceremony was performed by FIR.
Cady, the couple, We are told, showing
as much scsriness as the boy and girl,
who in loves young dres N, strike
hands in the pledge for life's venture.
Many beautiful and appropriate pres

ings from many friends in Logan and
from abroad, made the surroundings q
bower OF beauty.
A supper was spread TO the company
embracing in menu all the substantials

tin horns, no longer unable to restrain
broke loose and the walls of
Jericho would have succumbed to such
noise as was made. The Captain stood
q like man-iike married man.
The guests and the serenaders ac-
the Captain and his wife to
the depot and threw, in feeling at least,
many q slipper for good luck to the de-
parting couple. With them and with the
thousands Of friends of both, the Sen
tinel extends congratulations with the
hope that the maturity of life and con-
siderste affection may lead to paths of
pl easanness, that Love, and Conf
denee and mutual Esteem will be con-
slant home companions, and tina, Hy-
men, as tie agent OF the kindest Prov

The Small Boy and the Brass Bands
Succeed OfCourse.

The Republican Joilificatisn
last night was creditable to the
management Of Eli West, who
handled the fireworks, procured
the brass bands and the free tgains
The town was full Of people. The
crowd was orderly and good ma
tured. The display of fire. works,
in which there is no politics, was
the finest We have ever witness
ed in Logan. The music from
our own, the Lancaster and the
Nel<onvil!e bands, in which no
political note was played, was
very fine and enjoyed by every
body.
The announcement that Gov
Foraker would be here brought
out the bulk of the Logan peo-
pie in attendance. Chairman
Burgess, however. took the gov
ernor's place, and handled the
proceedings with gubernatorial
ability. The meeting was well
attended, the Opera House was
crowded. large proportion OF
the audience being ladies and
Democrats.
The stage was handsomely dec

visible TO the eagle eye OF the
SENrINEL. Eli West, who did
more than any man in the conn

stage. Burgess performed the

and space prevents giving our
readers synopsis Of what was
said.
Major Townsend disappointed
the meeting in his unmanly re-
fleciions upon his defeated oppo-
nent. He kept kicking and beat
ing his adversary when he was
down. He also made a claw at
the grave of Bill Allen and struck
several hard licks at jeff Davis
and other dead cats. lie
